If this song were a movie it would take place in Reno in the 50's. It would be a tale of love, betrayal and murder and star Ryan Gosling as Jake and Saoirse Ronan as Catherine.

This was recorded for the NPR Tiny Desk Concert but I decided to submit another song.

Sins
written by Robb Donker

time
time is an angel
who wears a devil's grin
and love
love is a stranger
who beckons you with her sins

and if you give in
you may get off
that Eastbound bus
never to return
and if you say yes
you may get lost
lying in the desert
staring at the stars

beautiful dreamer
beautiful schemer / screamer
I should of run away
why does love equal pain?
beautiful dreamer

time
time is an angel
who wears a devil's grin
and love
love is a stranger
who beckons you with her sins

and if you give in
you may get off
that Eastbound bus
never to return
and if you say yes
you may get lost
lying in the desert
staring at the stars
staring at the stars
